It looks like you are going with the Warriors here against the Nuggets.

But I'm going with the Nuggets at -3.5 @1.88. There are reports that Draymond might not going to play in this game. Even so, the Nuggets have Jokic, and then they are blending very well.

Yeah, there was no green on the court, but the Warriors really kept it a close game. The Nuggets came out on top, but they couldn't quite cover the spread, winning by only 3 points. That's all part of the game, mate. But you're taking 1.88; I personally think 1.95 would be better with a higher spread, but that's just my take.

Anyway, good luck in the next one, and let's hope for a bounce back.

Thanks, it was a hard fought game and the spread, ouch, I got greedy and thinking that they can cover it. Sure, I will try to bounce back as there are a lot of games later.

I'll go with the Bucks against the Pacers, could be another close game here, but let's see if Giannis can take one at the road against the Pacers. The Bucks slight favorite @1.77 ML. I think there's value on that bet.

I also like to go ML with the Mavericks @1.81 against the Clippers, gonna be exciting, but I think LA might still struggle and Doncic putting MVP numbers.

^^ Yeah, familiar with Berto and I will say that his he was like Broner, minus the trash talking. He had a good skills back then and if I remember correctly, he is supposedly to fight Mosley then, after Mosley beat Margarito. But a big earth quake hits Haiti (where Andre's family came from), so he has to go there and raise money for the country.

And after that, he goes back fighting but it seems that he has lost his hype already. He was one of Floyd's hit list and so they fought. But we all know that nobody beats Mayweather and so Berto looks very amateurish in that fight.

Obviously this is for the money and not for the revenge against another old fighter in Guererro. I don't know how this old boxers can still get a fight in a very good match like this one.

Praograis @3.65 is of interest to me. These boxers came from hard fights where they only won by questionable decisions. But Progais was fighting someone not in the top five while Haney fought Lomachenko. I will not miss this match. Prograis does not have the speed of Lomachenko but he has the ability to hurt Haney. Haney does not have ko in his punches but he has what it takes to win a decision.

Yeah, I think maybe sport bookies are underestimating Regis Prograis, or they think that Haney can overcome him with his skills. The scary part is that Regis has power to knockout anyone at 140 lbs and this is the first time that Haney in this weight. So we don't know how good he is, and his chin is also questionable. I mean if by chance Regis hit him with power punches he might go down.

Ryan Garcia utilized the names of Prograis and Haney to gain more fame in his separate match with I forgot the name. He generally discusses battling the best but as of recently, he is fearful of taking a match with the champions.

He is fighting Duarte, it's obvious that this is just a stepping stone or a comeback fight for Ryan. He is big though, an for sure he will not have a problem making 140 lbs. And Prograis is a champion here and Haney trying to make his name at this division same with him. So don't be surprise if he is going to call both of this fighters. Even Teo Lopez as well is in the radar of Ryan Garcia. So let's see first if he can get over Duarte and it will not be an easy fight for him.

Whenever I am low on cash on the casino I play which includes a sport book I like to copy other people bets,usually parlays with odds over 1000 and I think to myself who cares if I play for example 50 bets copying other people with 200 IDR as my base bet,if any of these guys hits it big I will do to.Notice that I put 1000 as a minimum here but the reality is that I have been copying bets with over 700.000 as odds,I damn love these huge multipliers yet no one has got such one in sport betting.

Of course in here it is not about skill or luck games anymore but it is about destiny,so tell me how many of you are deceived by dreams that may change your destiny like I am Grin

I haven't try that strategy though, but obviously I will see a lot of bets along the way and you will be just in awe on such big bets or those gamblers who are betting on a parlay with a huge odds and sometimes I'm tempted to copy them. However, those games that the gamblers are betting are not familiar to me, so most of the times I have qualms about it and so I don't do this strategy. But why not though, I mean if you are losing then it might call for desperate measures, just saying.

In any case, there is a video circulating about a man who is in prison, calling someone and telling them to bet for him a parlay,

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/7P48TLNBzsI

And it said that he won, and uses that money he won for a bail, not sure if this is real or not, but crazy story.

With my analysis and observation, I think before January there will be an inflation in Bitcoin. This coin have depreciate to it stop limit, that is where it can not further depreciate again.
And whenever this coin gets to this point, it reverses back and then boom and trust me it's about time.

Lol, I thought that OP will have a analysis on what's going to happen pre-halving. However, just like the rest of us, we have our own wild and educated guess. And I think the best scenario that everyone is hoping is that we want to see the price going into the positive direction, i.e. price around the $40k-$50k that time.

Not really sure what you mean by inflation and depreciation, yeah, terms could have the same meaning here, but in crypto we seldom used that term. But in any case, if the majority is looking for a increased at the start of next year, then obviously, we want to make profits short term and in order to do that, we should continue to accumulate at this price and hopefully our prediction will hit to squeeze some profits in January it you are that kind of a trader/speculator.

Lakers lost in dramatic fashion, nearly 20 point difference. They really need other players to step up, Lebron and AD alone can't do that much, Austin tried a bit this time around but that didn't really worked out that well for him neither considering they still lost. Inefficiency of the players when Lebron is not around could be their biggest problem, when he is on the floor, even if he doesn't play that well (although he plays well) at least he gets the defenders on him, 35 points just last game, 24 here, and I think the point is that when defenders are on him, others have easier shot selection.

They are indeed very inconsistent for now, they look for Lebron as their playmaker, and they supposed to improved in their shooting for this year, but that is not the case. Even getting Wood and Hayes as a back up for AD, but they seems to be not adjusting on that. Lebron will be Lebron though, day in day out he will go out and score. But if he didn't get the help that he wanted, they re going to struggle and lost just like what they did here.

And I thought that they have all the advantage against the Magic, size, basketball IQ. But it seems that Ham couldn't really adjust with the new Lakers line up. His plays are still evolved AD and Lebron and if they are not in the floor, they look disorganized.

I wonder how effective this program is. Have there been any testimonies from addicted gamblers who were helped by your platform?

Good question, but it seems that this is just a new platform, so they might not have or maybe few gamblers have reach out to them. And if ever they have, the data is going to be fairly young. But I do hope that the OP will comeback for more data in the future.

Quote from: Russlenat on November 05, 2023, 12:20:29 PM

This is free, as you mentioned, so I'm curious about its effectiveness. Gambling addiction is a serious issue and often requires expensive sessions to address. I appreciate the effort, though. I'll explore your website to gather more information, but I don't need help right now. Hopefully, I won't need it in the future.

I guess it's really up to the individual itself whether he wanted to quit or believed in this kind of services to help him out of his gambling addiction. But yeah, obviously we really like this kind of efforts from members here and we can only wish that those who are addicted right now and will reach out to them for help. And so there will be success stories specially if it will come from a forum members.

What is your one memory related to Bitcoin that you want to forget? It can be anything like some sort of scam happening to you or some other type of loss.

Bitcoin doubler, during the time that I entered bitcoin market, there's a lot of scams already, but one of the earliest is the doubler, not sure if anyone has the chance to witnessed it early in their career here or if this scam is still going on till this day. But I vividly remember that during those times there are a lot of bitcoin doubler than you can find and I fell victims to it.

Of course I was very gullible and I still very green that time. And I thought that I can make easy money but investing on this doubler. In the beginning they are really paying, so you will be entice to not withdraw the money but to roll it out. But before the second payment was to be made, the site suddenly went offline and then they say it's on maintenance. However, it was a exit already and after that it's gone and so I learn it the hard way that's why till now I can't forget that experience.

The month of octobar remains positive mostly due to its previous month's usual negative price action. The month of november can be positive or negative but from december to march before the year of bitcoin halving, the bitcoin market shows a correction to liquidate long and short positions is mass before the bull starts its rally. This is historically accurate but this time it can be different though i think history will repeat itself this time too. I don't think the bitcoin price will exceed 40k this year nor will it go down to the $28k level.

Ser, it was what they say as the month of UPtober. But for the month of November, I believe there was a Bitcoin price monthly table that was posted in one of the topics that illustrates that November = MOONvember.

Cool

Plus I agree that there's some probability that Bitcoin crashes before it surges after the halving, BUT that would be caused by something very unexpected. A Black Swan, and there's no point in trying to know because actually knowing before it happened would make it not a Black Swan.

Yes sir, it will take another black swan event like the Terra Luna or FTX collapse to bring the market down. However, I think we have pass that stage already, not seeing any black swan events that will dampen the market again just like what happen last year wherein there's string of bad luck in the market. Or shall we say that how the market reacts after a bull run, from all time high of $69k->$15,500 lowest low.

So why not? October still proves that it is will continue one of the best months for Bitcoin and it really did. And from the last lowest low, we are now 100%++, so that is already a big accomplishment for us. But it's not done yet, pre-halving we might be looking at around $41k-$45k price range.

With that, next 2 months will still be as exciting year ender for everyone.

I don't know though, but it seems that there are no trash talking so far leading up to the fight. On the contrary, even Benavidez Sr is giving all praises to Demetrius Andrade as one if not the best fighter that his son is going to praise. A Olympian and held belts in 154 lbs and 160 lbs.

It's respect, the Benavidez knows that it's not going to be easy for them to win against Andrade. We might not like the resume of Andrade because he really hasn't face a name fighter during this prime years, however, who can't blame those boxers for not wanting to go after him? He is a smart fighter and that southpaw stance of him and his boxing IQ made it very difficult to beat him. And David take it as a challenge to be the first one since the Olympics to beat Andrade.

Quote from: Yaunfitda on November 04, 2023, 10:10:52 AM

I think the target though of the Benavidez is Canelo Alvarez. But we will see, hopefully if they win here, Canelo might give him the title shot that they wanted for so long as it seems that Canelo is avoiding them and just hiding on the reasons of Alvarez doesn't want to fight another Mexican.

That is the bigger fish right there. Canelo Alvarez, and just like Manny Pacman during his prime years, everyone wanted to fight Canelo because of the huge paycheck that they will get and besides, have the entitlement to be the one who beat Canelo. I don't think that Alvarez can hide on the reason. Sooner or later fans are going to clamour for that fight and he should give us the fights that we wanted to see from him.

I don't use these casinos, I don't think that it's a "trend." Maybe it is a trend among poor people from third world countries, but the rest of the world plays live blackjack, not some simulation on telegram.

That is the keyword there, it's just a trend and hype and we all know that sooner or later it will die down. Gamblers still prefer the feel of getting into a land based casinos, and as far as I understand, they kind of telegram bots games are very simply. Maybe in the beginning, everyone is going to enjoy it, but we need games that is really exciting and that will bring entertainment to us and I do not see this telegram bots giving us that adrenaline rush.

Quote from: Fivestar4everMVP on November 04, 2023, 07:59:16 PM

Well, I don't know about other people, or what they think, but for me, what ever has to do with telegram is something that must be given much carefulness, and this is because telegram is a known den for scammers, so for me, I don now trust or engage in services on telegram, most especially when it involves me depositing my hard earned money.

Another given fact, but I guess this telegram bots wanted to gain reputation first, so maybe they are not that rigged or provably fair in the eyes of the gamblers. So right now there could be some trying to get their hands on this games. But for me, as far as my gaming experience goes, I will it to be more entertaining and not boring. And this what separates telegram bots to online crypto based games as the feel and ambiance is very different.

I looked for traces of Satoshi on the Internet. I've read all of his posts since 2009. He is sublime. If you read his writing, you can feel his passion. I have a little bit of bitcoin. I'm pretty relieved just to have Bitcoin. But if you look back at history.. Yahoo lost to Google. Yahoo was great, but Google was even better. Satoshi gave us a gift called Bitcoin without any greed and went somewhere. The problem is, new geniuses are born all the time, and technology advances. Bitcoin is not physics. It's blockchain technology. Which means that bitcoin is not an immutable law. A better technology than Bitcoin could emerge. What should we do if someone gives us a better system than bitcoin as a gift and leaves? It performs better than Bitcoin, and it even has the perfect decentralization of Bitcoin, which we value highly. Bitcoin was created in 2009, and now it's 2023. Cars made in 2009 cannot be better than cars made in 2023 or later. What if someone with as much genius and passion as Satoshi is creating a system better than Bitcoin?

Of course that is the nature of technology, some of them come and go. But so far with all the thousands of altcoins that have existed, no one can still topple Bitcoin. And maybe Satoshi was really a genius. I mean him disappearing really put his "Project" into like an enigma that up to this day, it is still the number 1 crypto and not even anyone can get close to it.

Actually there was an attempt before, and it was called "The Flippening", wherein Ethereum supposedly overtaking Bitcoin, but they failed.

And then "The Rippening", Ripple as well, but then again, their attempts met similar faith as Bitcoin didn't moved.

So still depends on Bitcoin enthusiast to make it and continue to be the dominant coin and so far all signs pointed that Bitcoin community is very strong till the next the decade.

What's scary about the Nets is that there is no clear franchise player for them right now. So everyone wanted to prove something in this game and so they played like there is no tomorrow and regardless who they are facing next, it will be a very dangerous team.

That makes the Nets really unpredictable because it's hard to know who will make a big impact in the game. Unlike other teams with clear superstars, the opponents can usually predict who will lead the team.

What's interesting about the Nets is that everyone on the team is ready to contribute. Their last 3 wins on the road were very impressive, but they need to win at home. However, facing the Celtics might not be easy because Boston is very confident right now. But it's worth a try; an upset is possible for sure. So, I'd like to bet a small amount on the Nets' moneyline since they're on a winning streak.

Yep, and if you look at the scoring loads in their last win, everyone put some something, 5 points or more and then they are players that will go on a certain quarter and others will take over the next. And I think this might be the first case wherein it's inconsistent, I mean as we have discussed there is no leader, but everyone is ready to contribute, whether scoring or rebounds or assists. Like for Ben Simmons, almost a triple double.

They are a huge underdog against the Celtics though, but whatever, maybe it's good to throw some money on them ML or even the handicap at +9.5 as they might gave the lead leading Celtics a very close and tight game.

Greetings to everyone,please i am new in this forum and I was directed by my friend to join the forum to get information and answers that I need to know about Bitcoin.
The challenge started when a friend introduced cryptocurrency to me and I picked interest about it ,I started making some researches on how to trade and invest in Bitcoin ,I downloaded candle stick bible as directed by my friend so I can have a good knowledge on how to understand the reasons for the formation of each of those candles And the reasons for their existence,
I went through those stress to also learn how to analyze and also to know bullish and bearish moves ,to know when the market is trending and choppy but after all these processes and following those strategies I will still loose my capital . However, my question here is ' what is the best strategy to trade without losing my initial capital ?.
Please friends I need advice and answers to this question because I know we have crypto experts here in the forum who will assist me and also educate me on what I need to know about Bitcoin trading .Thanks .

I'm sorry to hear that you lost your capital trading bitcoin, I mean you should have known that there are a big risk in trading and I will say that it is not for everyone. Obviously, it seems that you still lack the experience even if you says that you have gone a lot to learn and analyze.

There is a dedicated thread here, Trading Discussion, maybe that is where the best place that you can start.

Or if you doesn't want to complicate things on your end to become a trader, maybe what you can do is just simply buy and hold for a long term. So just think about it, at least there is an option for you and you won't go and be stress like every day trying to squeeze and make some profits every day trading.

Went with "Bull market" because the signs are present more and more with each day passing and at this rate , we could see Bitcoin price soaring towards 38-39k by the end of the year but for November I do see Bitcoin price swing around 35k for the entire month and I don't see it dropping back under 32k Cool

Yeah, same here, I think with the mentally of the investors last month seems to be very bullish, I think it will carry over to this month and I'm not seeing the price going below $30k till the end of the year. On the contrary, $35k-$38k might be base line or even higher this November.

And with the Spot Bitcoin ETF still in the minds of investors, I wouldn't be surprised that any news that goes will it will bring positive effects to that market. Whether another ticker will be displayed or just any statement for those who applied and everyone interpret it as a sign that it will be approved sooner that later, then the market will go on another spike for this month.

Fight is getting closer as well, everyone should be excited to see this second week of November. The odds hasn't change a bit, Shakur is still the favorite and I don't think we are going to see some swings as the fight goes closer.

No, there won't be any changes in the odds because it's not a team game. If one boxer is injured, the fight will either be postponed or, in the worst case, canceled. As expected, Stevenson is listed as the heavy favorite with only 1.08 odds. It may not be very attractive, but if you look at the bright side, it's almost like guaranteed money in this fight.

Currently, the odds are as follows:

Stevenson 1.08
De Los Santos 6.80

Over 10.5 rounds 1.22
Under 10.5 rounds 3.85

Under 10.5 rounds is very attractive odds indeed, but it's a long shot as it seems that Delos Santos is going to be a tough customer for Stevenson. There is no decision win by Shakur though, I was wondering why casinos are not yet listed that, at least on the favorite casinos that I'm betting.

So I might want to wait for that, if the odds will be like 1.8x something, maybe I will go with that one.

Obviously, ML is not worth it, Or for those who wanted to think that there will be an upset, then everything on Delos Santos will be good. Or at least throw some money on him just for sake of that good odds for him to win.

Well everyone is going to take if a casino is rigged or not, regardless of what the amount is, if my experienced. And the casino has one answer only, how about those who are winning on the other hand?

And there are ways to check whether casinos are rigged though or if they are provably fair and I think everyone should do that instead of accusing some casinos.

I'm not defending them, it's that as gamblers we always find someone to blame for our losses, but if you look closely, it is us gamblers who take that risk and betting $10 to $1 million and if it doesn't go our way, then we say that we are being cheated.

The Pelicans once again are playing strong especially if they are complete. But while the season just started, Zion was rested against the Pistons today. So it seems like there is something wrong with his physical condition once again. It will be very sad if he suffers another season-ending injury. And this season starts Zion's nearly $200 million 5-year contract.

Yeah, the regular season has just started, but Zion is already missing games to rest. It's weird, but it looks like the Pelicans medical staff has some valid concerns about his physical condition. I guess the problem is with his knees again, and the Pelicans need to do something with Zion's injury predisposition, otherwise this will go on "indefinitely" since the main reason for that is because he's overweight.

That will be too bad though if Zion will again miss any games because of his injuries. We thought that he is already healed as it almost took a season for him to rest and rehab that injury. However, despite his best effort to trim down his weight and build some muscles, his body still have a hard time from the pounding that he is putting so that is going to be a big concern on the team again whether he can go this grueling season and not getting injured and could be resting in some games.

I don't know, maybe we are going to see him being traded if he is not going to be fully healthy and don't contribute to the team. Their medical staff really need to work very hard for Zion, but if everything doesn't goes well, then I wouldn't be surprised if the management will have to think their options on him.

I don't follow boxing as much as I use to when I was younger. I really miss the days of the big time legendary heavyweights such as Tyson, Holyfield, Lennox Lewis etc. Today it seems like the guy, or heavyweight that I see the name most often pop up is Fury. Has he been the best heavyweight for some time? Is there anyone else coming up to challenge him?

I wanting to start to learn more about boxing so I can start placing some bets on the matches.

There's Usyk, a Ukrainian Jr HW but has unified some belts in the heavyweight as well. It's why the most awaited fight in history is Fury and Usyk but this is very uncertain yet. They were scheduled to fight this Dec 23 but once again moved. Before this, they were supposed to fight last year as well. Either Arum or the two are just not meeting in the middle with how much is each cut.

The deal has been signed as far as know that's why there are a date already. But since Fury is battered and bruised and you can see that after that fight he has a black eye, they might not meet at the December 23 date as Fury as per medical advise needs to take a rest and again, this is mandatory to all boxers as there will be medical being taken after a fight and doctors might advise them to recover first.

Quote from: bittraffic on November 02, 2023, 07:41:43 PM

Now they bring Ngannou on the stage, I guess all eyes are on him and Ngannou grabs the camera to himself and wants to fight every HW that agrees. I think he is fighting Anthony Joshua or Doentay Wilder this Dec. 23. They couldn't pick a better day to surprise us all for, everyone wants to spend this very holiday.

We will see what the future holds for Francis, AJ and Wilder too has it's own fight as well. So Francis will have to wait for this heavyweight, the top tier before he can fight. He will not run short of good opponents in this division though. He could even fight Zhang if he wanted to.
